Tessitura

应用音域

A term taken over by some phoneticians from musical terminology and used to refer to the characteristic compass, or pitch range, of a person’s voice, when speaking normally. People are often impressionistically classified in this way (e.g. a ‘very high-pitched’ voice), as are languages.

原为音乐术语，有的语音学家用来指正常说话时一个人嗓音特有的音域或音高范围。人们常凭印象给个人的嗓音也给语言这样分类（如“音很高的”嗓音）。
